Stars - the number of stars that a project has on GitHub. Growth - month over month growth in stars.
Activity is a relative number indicating how actively a project is being developed. Recent commits have higher weight than older ones.
For example, an activity of 9.0 indicates that a project is amongst the top 10% of the most actively developed projects that we are tracking.

Generating and Working With ScriptPubKeys in Bitcoin Transactions
Bitcoin transactions involve locking funds in scripts, which can only be spent if those locking conditions are met. The part of the script that expresses these locking conditions are called ScriptPubKeys. On the other hand, the part that provides unlocking scripts to satisfy the locking conditions is referred to as ScriptSig for legacy transactions, and ScriptWitness for SegWit Transactions. These scripts are evaluated by a stack-based language called Script. This article will mainly focus on ScriptPubKeys.

How are Cold Wallets made?
The purpose of Bitcoin was not to create a means to keep your wealth in your memory. Seed phrases were proposed and implemented 4 years after Bitcoin’s release in BIP-39.

CHIP-2023-01 Excessive Block-size Adjustment Algorithm (EBAA) for Bitcoin Cash Based on Exponentially Weighted Moving Average (EWMA)
BIP101 doubles every 2 years with linear interpolation. If we used that, the block size limit as of a couple minutes ago would have been 188,938,289 bytes. That's pretty close to what I think the safe limit actually is right now.
This is a variation of the above but where nodes would accept to automatically execute some adjustment in their consensus-sensitive policies, and in response to coinbase or block header messages. Notable proposal of this category was BIP-0105, and the idea resurfaced in a recent discussion with zawy.

Bitcoin Secure Multisig Setup (BSMS) Backup
I am trying to learn more about the best practices and tools to backup the Bitcoin Secure Multisig Setup (BSMS). When you create a multisig wallet, the coordinator app usually creates a .bsms file with all the descriptors to recreate the wallet. This is described on BIP129: https://github.com/bitcoin/bips/blob/master/bip-0129.mediawiki But having access to that file reveals the funds of the multisig wallet, so I think is not a good idea to store it in plain text. It should at least be encrypted so you can decide who can access it. Splitting the BSMS content into multiple QRs shares would be ideal, so you can distribute each share in different locations.

Is walletgenerator.net BTC wallet unsafe?
If you, for whatever reason, absolutely must use single key paper wallets, then the only site I'd even think about using is https://bitaddress.org/ or maybe even better, getting the website code from its github repo: https://github.com/pointbiz/bitaddress.org so you can see that it hasn't been altered in 6 years.
